I am not losing weight this time! I lost 60 pounds back in 2009. I gained 15 back. Well, I have tried weight watchers, atkins, just cutting back.... I work out regularly. I drink my water. So I joined NS again on April 5. I lost like 4 pounds the first week. I have gained one back, and the scale is not budging at all. I just don't understand it.

Also, this 10-15 pounds came back a few months after menopause hit me. I have tried for 2 and a half years to lose it. I am so discouraged. I even switched lunch and dinner last week, thinking that would work, Nope.0

Don't get discouraged. It is much more difficult to lose the weight during and after menopause. It will come off though, it just may take a little bit longer. A few years ago, I was able to drop 10 lbs in a few weeks. I've hit perimenopause and now it's not that easy. There are some weeks I don't lose anything & a few weeks, I gained weight. Stay positive & know we are all rooting for you.0

Thank you for your encouragement. I won't give up, because if I am not dieting, I start gaining really fast. At least I am not putting on weight, and I feel lighter. I will measure after a month to see if I've lost any inches. If I stay right here at 170, I will learn to accept it I guess. I refuse to go back to 225 pounds!!! Or even 180!0
